Catering facilities to be built in Hes East

Plans are in their final stages for a new catering facility to be opened on the Heslington East campus. The current expected date of completion is January 2011. The University Press Officer, David Garner, stated: “We have completed the brief for the building and we have asked architects to submit designs which will then be considered.” YUSU President, Tim Ngwena, said: “I’m keen to see the plans for this facility finalised sooner rather than later without sacrificing the quality of the design and build. This is a good opportunity for the University to show that it really does care about social space.”
